Artificial intelligence is transforming society. AI Sweden is the national center for applied artificial intelligence, jointly funded by the Swedish government and our partners. Our mission is to accelerate the use of AI for the benefit of our society, our competitiveness, and for everyone living in Sweden. Partnering with SGInnovate’s Summation Programme and other stakeholders, we're excited to launch the AI Exchange Initiative - a collaborative program aimed at cultivating top AI talent and fostering international innovation.

About the position

The national center for applied AI, AI Sweden, has together with SGInnovate, a Venture Capital firm aiming to grow Singapore's deep tech startup ecosystem, created a unique program for top talent within AI. The AI Exchange Initiative offers a unique ten month rotational program designed for exceptional graduates passionate about AI. Starting in September 2024, four participants (two Swedish and two Singaporeans) will jointly spend five months in each country. They will work in pairs at organizations focusing on AI and deep tech.
